A fine sailing summer of 2005 has come and gone, and 2006 is just around the corner. I hope that you - like me - were able to do lots of enjoyable sailing during the past year, and that next year will bring more of the same! This seems a good time to reflect on how fortunate we are in that we have so many willing and able members who generously give of their time and expertise to keep our club and its many services to the sailing community running smoothly. Starting with George Blanchard’s ever present fine example, we have literally dozens of members to whom we owe a huge debt of gratitude. Thanks also to contributors to this edition as noted in the various articles, and to Annelies Groen who wield- ed the whip and gathered all the materials for me.

  • 2019 Racing Class Handicaps ALL KNOWN BOATS
    2019 Racing Class Handicaps ALL KNOWN BOATS The following table is a listing of all known boat classes and their assigned base ratings set by the Race Coordinator for the 2019 racing season. GSSC has adopted US Sailing’s model of the Portsmouth Yardstick – an internationally recognized handicap system – and uses its Table of Precalculated Classes as a reference. When Yardstick numbers are unavailable, GSSC refers to the published ratings of US Sailing’s Performance Handicap Racing Fleet (PHRF) – another internationally recognized system. Where neither Yardstick or PHRF ratings are available, GSSC uses the “Schell Regression Formula” with available boat measurements to create PHRF and Yardstick ratings. Boats with insufficient data cannot receive a rating. At minimum, the Shell Regression Formula requires the boat’s length at water level (LWL), weight/displacement, draft, and sail dimensions (I-J-P-E). Individual Adjustments Individual adjustments may be made to address rigging setup or hull modifications. For example, a boat that is normally equipped with a spinnaker may get an adjustment to compensate for a lack of spinnaker, or a boat that normally has an inboard motor may get an adjustment to reflect its use of an outboard motor. Individual adjustments are made at the Race Coordinator’s discretion and on a case- by-case basis. Individual adjustments are made and posted separately from this table of class ratings. Table Headings The following headings are found on this table: • CLASS (MODEL) – the name of the class or model • BOATS – the number of boats known to be part of this class • DPN – the base Yardstick rating for each class • DPN1 to DPN4 – if available, the alternate Yardstick ratings for each class used in accordance with the Beaufort wind scale • PHRF – the base PHRF rating for each class • TIME @ 10NM – for reference, the example expected time for each boat to complete a straight 10-mile course based on the Yardstick/PHRF ratings provided.
